Introduction & Design Planning
Learn about the properties of silver clay and the tools used. Plan your design by sketching ideas for your jewelry piece, such as pendants, earrings, or charms.
Shaping
Shape the silver clay into your desired design using your hands and tools.
Drying & Refining
Allow the shaped clay to dry slightly to make it easier to handle. Refine your piece by smoothing edges, adding details, and making any adjustments.
Firing the Clay
The instructor will guide you through the firing process, where your piece is heated in a kiln to transform the clay into solid silver. This process burns off the organic binder in the clay, leaving behind pure silver.
Final Touches
Add any additional elements, such as stones or embellishments, to personalize your jewelry. Make any last adjustments or refinements.
